A nurse teaching the parents of a 10-month-old infant about home safety. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching? (Select all that apply.)
Explanation & Rationale
A. Accordion style gates can be hazardous as they may pinch a child's fingers; safety gates should be solid and secure. B. A snug-fitting mattress in the crib is crucial to prevent the child from getting trapped or suffocated. C. Tying plastic bags in knots helps prevent a child from suffocating or choking if they play with discarded bags. D. Setting the water heater at 65.6° C (150° F) is too hot for a child's safety; it should be set lower to prevent burns. E. Serving food in small, non-circular pieces reduces the risk of choking, which is vital for a 10-month-old who is learning to eat solid foods.
